No kidding. Where'd everybody go???????

Oh a good buddy fro AK sent me some smoked salmon he did. So how do you eat smoked salmon. Is it like jerky style? Or do you put it on plate with a meal?

 

I chew mine but I guess you could just......er....anyway...

Is it preserved by smoke or just smoked and frozen?

 

he..he..he... wise guy...

It's smoked and vacuum packed. Cats were gathering around the mailbox.

 

Dragon and I went looking for that darn Janitor SCOTT...we were gonna take his lunch money!

G'night DTR.

 

Sorry, couldn't help myself. Google "salmon preserved with smoke" and start there. From what I could see with a quick look fish that is smoked has to be refrigerated after it's cooked. If the fish is dried it's already preserved.

I'm out, it's going to be a long day tomorrow.

 

Depends on how it's done.

Salmon jerky is awesome. Eat it straight out of the vacuum pack. Smoked then canned is even awesomer. Mix it up with some creamcheese and make a spread out of it or straight out of the can too...... Plain ol' smoked I eat cold with cheese and crackers.

I ate about a half pound of the jerky last night......Tasty.

 

Cool yall. We'll tear into this then and see how Rick did. If he kills us off with a stomach bug we're not ever attending one of his house parties again!

I probably better drag myself to bed soon. Something tells me I'm going to not wanne get up and get moving in the a.m.

Night night.

 

Sis, Jake makes the coffee. The janitor can't do it without injuring himself.
Also, the neighbors don't like it when Jake lets him out of the house but its better than having to get the carpets cleaned.

I usually headed up to your area anyway but DOFG just changed our Kenai regs to antlers of at least 50 inches or four or more brow tines on one side. Wish I wasn't so cheap, I would charter a flight accross the inlet.

Thought you had made the term "donkeys" up. I researched it (my scientific mind at work) and discovered that donkey is slang for gluteus maximus. DTR can be very intellectually stimulating and I learn something new and important every day.

Couldnt have said it better. I cold smoke most of ours. The stuff I don't can, I vacume pack it than put it in the deep freeze. I usually wait until winter to cold smoke. 0 humidity and able to keep the product right at around 35f--perfect temp for cold smoking.
Now, my favorite way---(I love raw salmon used for sushi). You are not supposed to eat raw salmon unless it has been frozen at 0f for 24 hours because of the chance of tapeworm.
Take the frozen salmon (tail sections work best), thaw it over night in the fridge with soy sauce, ginger or whatever you like. Put it back in the freezer for 15 minutes to make it easier to thin slice it. Put the slices on bagels or on sushi rice. We like it better than the raw tuna most places use. It is good!!

 

Its 50" or 3 or more where I hunt.

 

'Copulation'... An electrocuted cop?

What do you do, get out a tape measure before you take the thing down?

Morning folks. Made it through another birthday yesterday. Made up and changed out 2 of the most difficult to access hydraulic lines on the under reach of one of our 40 ton heavies . Got the wife's jeep all serviced up and 4 new sneakers put on it. 140k on it and it goes down the road as nice as new, I love that 4.0.

Some yard work, some service work on my truck then pinning to the 5ver for a week of R&R at Hampton beach. Long range forecast says a real nice week ahead up there so I expect a hurricane. Really looking forward to some down time, gonna have the grand daughter teach me how to fish.

Have a great weekend everyone, if your on the road, have a safe and successful trip.

 

Happy Belated Birthday Tim.

My wife has a Jeep Compass. She loves it. I keep finding features on it that we did not know about. I will take my Ram over the Jeep though.

All is well up here in spite of some 'stuff' and I just keeping forging ahead.

Off to work again, woo hoo.

Enjoy the day eh.

 

Sure! As long as you promise not to beat me. I could be old enough to be your father Chicky

You should see what we do for entertainment

There's allot of Whacks out there. Be safe. If you see a red Ram with Jorsey plates on it behind you, consider it a backup.

 

yup, love my jeep liberty. Loved my 96 dodge ram though,haven't looked at any other brand. love the one ton 04 but it is hubby's ride.

mmmm smoked salmon! I have two halibut and one salmon left. gonna wait till winter with the canned stuff to enjoy. Did one on a plank; one with guacamole, and thin sliced halibut with mango salsa....hubby is cro magnon man- meat and potatoes. must have used his tongue to test the electric fence at one time.

Bark, funny. yup, neighbors like the janitor locked up. Cincy does too but for different reasons I guess...... yeah, I am cheap as well- did not charter a bush plane the whole trip. bartered construction to frame and pour a slab to head Northwest. glad I did not pay for the concrete loved seeing the float planes all over though!

How the heck do you guys even hunt? that friggin' alder is thick!!!
"oh, look a moose! cause a tree stump in the air would be wrong."
if you used a tree stand, you could go for a ride on it's back.

ok gangs all here- off to play Top Shot

matt- I'll PM ya on the guns can't say publically, not safe.
